    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Sorry, that's too bad. I have a feeling Tesla is going to have to adjust the prices down since the cap is $55k on the tax credit. If you're not in an immediate need for a car, I'd hold off to see what happens.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I had two model 3s on the last step (accept delivery) with the Plaid payment step completed on both. I didn't see either in my bank account, and one was there for two days. I was then able to cancel one of the 3 through Tesla. I don't think the payment actual starts until you accept delivery.

    I cancelled my Red/white 3P. I see it's available in Dublin CA (Bay Area) if anyone wants to try to pick it up this evening.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I think delivery needs to be in 2023 for the EV credit. The previous cap is still in effect for 2022 making all Teslas ineligible. Alternative Fuels Data Center: Electric Vehicles with Final Assembly in North America. If you purchase tomorrow, I put in a Model 3 VIN and it looks eligible...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I was able to schedule a delivery appointment for the new red 3P. Now I have two cars to choose from today 😂 I've heard bad things about trying to get body panel alignment fixed so I don't know about the grey one. The wheels don't bother me as much as the frunk. I'm going to clean up the car...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I already sent them pictures, and I haven't accepted delivery. Funny enough the red 3P I config I ordered just became available on the existing inventory, so I put down $250. If it's possible somehow I am going to try to purchase the red 3P. I have a Dec 31st - Jan 7th delivery estimate on...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    It was dropped off at my house but they were gone before I got outside. My demo 3P has curb rash, and it's dark and raining so I can't visually inspect the car very well. Also, the frunk lid has a gap on one side to the bumper cover. Unless I hear I can't from Tesla, I'm going to wait until...

    Your red looks great! That was my color choice on my custom order before I switched into a grey existing inventory. Is it a different red than recent years?

    Just got my appointment for Tesla to make delivery at my house tomorrow 🙌 Hopefully the car looks good and I can accept delivery.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    My car is already built but I don’t know where it is. On the 31st I’ll probably just drive to the Sunnyvale showroom and take a chance it may be there.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I've had a VIN assigned since the 24th on an existing inventory 3P, but still no call. SA said I’d get a call when the car is in town. I’m losing hope for a December delivery.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Based on sinking resale prices and the 3P being above the $55k federal rebate limit, I think Tesla will have to adjust the price down next year. I wouldn't buy a 3P expecting for it not to depreciate (like 99% of cars in normal times).

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    My existing inventory 3P got pushed from a 25-31st estimate to 29th-31st. Bay Area.

    Ouch, sorry to hear that. I wish they'd refund deposits if the estimates changed from when you put it down.
